VIEWING AND CONTROLLING VIDEO

NOTE: In the following procedures the “Select Play” or “Select Pause” step can be accomplished either by moving the joystick or by pressing

the keyboard icon.

If your system includes more than one CM9700MDD-EVS unit, any unit can display video on the monitor when you select video from an Endura

camera. To determine the CM9700MDD-EVS currently in use, press the ID icon on DVR Menu 3. The CM9700MDD-EVS unit’s Friendly Name

appears on the monitor, and the ﬁrst LED on the CM9700MDD-EVS unit (the Unit Status Indicator LED) blinks momentarily.

If the camera displayed on the monitor includes PTZ functions, you may be able to use the CM9760-KBD joystick and keys to control the PTZ

functions, depending on how the video connections are wired.

Digital Signal Connections

When video from an Endura system camera is connected to an Endura system encoder and then routed to the matrix switcher as a digital signal

through the CM9700MDD-EVS, you can control the camera’s PTZ functions from either the matrix system (using the CM9760-KBD keyboard) or

the Endura system (using the KBD5000 keyboard). Refer to the appropriate keyboard manual for instructions.

Analog Signal Connections

In some systems, an optional analog video signal may be routed from an Endura system camera (connected to an Endura system encoder) to the

matrix switcher. In this scenario, PTZ control depends on the method used, as follows:

Method 1: If the matrix system includes an optional CM9760-CXT or CM9760-CXTA Coaxitron® translator, you can control the camera’s PTZ

functions from either the matrix system (using the CM9760-KBD keyboard) or the Endura system (using either the KBD5000 keyboard or the

WS5050). Refer to the appropriate keyboard manual for instructions.

Method 2: If the analog video is routed to the matrix system through a CM9760-MDA unit, then the connection is based on P protocol, RS-422

wiring. With this method, PTZ control is available only from the matrix system keyboard (not from the Endura system); refer to the CM9760-KBD

Keyboard Installation/Operation manual for instructions.

To remove the monitor text (camera titles, etc.) from the monitor display, press the monitor text icon. Pressing the monitor text icon again returns

the monitor text to the monitor display.

next event recorded from the same camera.

2. While viewing recorded video, press the Previous Event icon to search in reverse for an event. The video jumps to the beginning of the

previous event recorded from the same camera.
